https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ludocrazy.totems (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ludocrazy.totems) Please read the newst Developer Diary entry on the blog about the Alpha Test: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/silent-totems-alpha-released/ (http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/silent-totems-alpha-released/) (http://gamedesignreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/gdr_totems_feature_graphic_580x342.jpg) Some Info: Silent Totems is my second game to be completed on Android (its the fourth prototype i developed). I wrote some developer diary entries (and will continue those on the comming weekends) on the game: Read the Tuesday Dev Diary parts: 6: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/tuesday-developer-diary-silent-totems-6/ 5: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/tuesday-developer-diary-silent-totems-5/ 4: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/tuesday-developer-diary-silent-totems-4/ 3: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/tuesday-developer-diary-silent-totems-3/ 2: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/tuesday-developer-diary-silent-totems-2/ 1: http://gamedesignreviews.com/scrapbook/silent-totems-developer-diary/ youtube links for the impatient ones, these are the videos featured in the dev diaries: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXX2MGGE8O0 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXX2MGGE8O0) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVaf4Fxn2mE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVaf4Fxn2mE) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEGvHBIqG6Y (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEGvHBIqG6Y) Title: Re: New Dev Diary - Silent Totems Post by: Blackcorn on April 06, 2011, 12:56:31 AM It looks nice and I'm very curious and eager for a test session. If you need some guys to try it before you release it, I'm in! I have an android phone that is waiting for fresh game. ;)
BTW, when do you expect to finish it? Title: Re: New Dev Diary - Silent Totems Post by: sirleto on April 06, 2011, 05:38:50 AM It looks nice and I'm very curious and eager for a test session. If you need some guys to try it before you release it, I'm in! I have an android phone that is waiting for fresh game. ;) BTW, when do you expect to finish it? thanks... and yes, definitely we (me and yann) will need feedback - and more hardware testing is always welcome. you can already try out princess nuriko http://www.gameprogramming.de/renkel/portfolio/project.php?id=56 (http://www.gameprogramming.de/renkel/portfolio/project.php?id=56) (which is available on android market as demo and full game) to see if my framework/engine works on your phone. on the long run, send me a mail (via above website) for testing on Silent Totems. Title: Re: New Dev Diary - Silent Totems Post by: sirleto on April 06, 2011, 08:30:09 AM BTW, when do you expect to finish it? forgot to answer that last question: i'd like to intend release for a feedback / test version in "a few weeks" (april), and release (as in: "for sale on market") probably four weeks later (mai). and (more or less) "final" update (polishing, more content, taking into account all game ideas / feedback gotten) in autumn... but thats just a theoretical schedule in "made up", practically there is so much that could delay it :) Title: Re: New Dev Diary - Silent Totems [Android] Post by: Noisefever on April 08, 2011, 09:17:00 PM this game looks very interesting. can't wait to try it out! for me as a musician the idea with the changing mood of the music is especially attractive. i'm curious if this works out!
Title: Re: Tuesday Dev Diary - Silent Totems #2 [Android] Post by: sirleto on April 11, 2011, 02:52:12 PM noisefever, you can hear a bit more of the music in the second part of the diary (which i linked just now) :blink:
